The producer

Sfinarolis family's 80 years experience in olive tree cultivationn translates in the production of the high quality olive oil Sarakina. Their privately-owned olive groves were planted by their grandfathers with love and tender care and today they continue their family tradition with the same love and care, always in complete harmony with the natural environment of Crete. Their Olive-groves are found in over 400 meters elevation, over the mountainous region of Sarakina in South-western Crete. The varieties of olive trees in their region are the "Tsounati" which flourishes exclusively in this region of Crete and "Koronaiki". Those varieties in that particular climatic (full sunlight, high rainfalls, low humidity) and geomorphologic (inclining grounds) conditions of our region give physiochemical and organoleptic characteristics to their "Extra Virgin Olive oil from Selino county in Crete".
